enIs it possible to share DFS root through WebDAV via IIS in case of IIS is not on DFS server?http://www.linuxine.com/story/it-possible-share-dfs-root-through-webdav-iis-case-iis-not-dfs-server
<p>Is it possible to share DFS root (not DFS subfolders individually) through WebDAV via IIS in case of IIS is not on DFS server, using NTLM authentication.<br />
Is there any Best-Practices? Should I share it as a website root (in this case I get problems with saving web.config file) or as a virtual directory (In this case I have no access to <a href="https://server.example.com/DFS" title="https://server.example.com/DFS" rel="nofollow">https://server.example.com/DFS</a> through WebDav)?</p>

<a href="http://www.domain.name/forum" title="http://www.domain.name/forum" rel="nofollow">http://www.domain.name/forum</a> - apache</p>

<p>One of our Windows/Coldfusion/IIS webservers has been experiencing a very odd pattern of high inbound network traffic.</p>
<p>In the picture above the red hum is out-bound traffic, and the yellow line is in-bound network traffic. It's very usual for a webserver which is sending out hundreds of requests per second of image and webpage data for the inbound traffic to be spiking that high.</p>

<p>I need to create a service to host several ip cameras, in the beginning 500+.<br />
The ip cameras send the files over ftp, so, to identify each camera, the files must go to separated folders.<br />
